Relationship of circulating MMP–2, MMP–1, and TIMP–1 levels with bone biochemical markers and bone mineral density in postmenopausal Chinese women

Abstract: In conclusion, our results suggest that circulating MMP-2 and markers of bone turnover are correlated, and serum MMP-2 levels may rise with increase in bone turnover.

“…Serum concentrations of MMP-2 have been related to markers of bone turnover including bone alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and cross-linked N-telopeptides of type I collagen [47]. A previous study also found that serumMMP-2 levels may also increase with increasing bone turnover [48]. In the present study, women with one copy of the MMP2_C595T T allele (located in the 5′ promoter at position −1586) had a 21% lower adjusted rate of vertebral fracture, and women with two copies had a 56% lower adjusted rate.…”

“…We were not able to clearly distinguish from this design what type of vascular effect was due to isoflavones or to berberine, though we supposed it could be additive. Furthermore, MMP and TIMP levels could also have been related to changes in bone turn-over, 31 which was not evaluated in our study. Finally, TIMP dosage had large CVs, which reduced the reliability of the dosage itself.…”

“…Moreover, recent findings demonstrate how matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a family of enzymes that degrade extracellular matrix, can both stimulate smooth muscle cell migration through the internal elastic lamina into the intima, and generate monomeric collagen, therefore contributing to the development of atherosclerotic plaque [32]. MMPs are correlated positively with bone markers such as BAP and NTX [33]. All this evidence shows how bone turnover and carotid intima-media thickness seem to related.…”
